Royals vs. Rockies Open Game Thread

Jaime Moyer is in Rockies camp this spring. Fun facts about Jaime Moyer.

He made his MLB debut the season after Ned Yost played his last MLB season.

Yost never faced Moyer, but former Royals managers Bob Boone (1-4), Buddy Bell (0-10), and Tony Pena (2-2) have.
